Students in our high school, enrolled in any elective mathematics courses, are encouraged to undertake mathematics projects, which are then entered each spring in the annual District Science Day Contest sponsored by the Ohio Academy of cience. Winners in the District Contest are eligible to compete for awards in t he tate Science Day Contest. This contest creates great interest and enthusiasm in our school, and to win a “superior” rating in the State Contest is considered one of the highest honors that a student can achieve.

The Past

During the past decade widespread revision of mathematics courses of study on the state level has taken place. One outstanding characteristic of these revisions, taken as a whole, is that in their attempt to correct educational ills of many years’ standing they suggest flexible mathematics programs for all high school pupils throughout their stay in high school. These programs are varied and planned to meet the needs of various types of pupils.

In this age of computers and with the emphasis on the teaching of mathematics, we are apt to forget the needs of our most “basic” students. I define basic students as those aspiring to high school diplomas but not having the ability to succeed in college preparatory mathematics courses. We require these students to pass a year of basic arithmetic, usually called general mathematics, geared toward enabling them to pass a minimum-competency test set up by the state.

Franklin County

While national surveillance studies have stratified high school students’ health behavior outcomes, few ecological data sets have been explored, collected, and analyzed on the unique health problems of minority children. An area for which limited data on minority youth has been collected is Franklin County, home of the state capital of Kentucky. In the current study, we use baseline data collected in 2015 from students attending two high schools that were sites for Kentucky State University’s Youth Empowerment Project. We hypothesize that youth who reside in Franklin County would report lower maladjusted behaviors than their national and statewide counterparts in the same year of observation. Data analyses confirm that compared to their national- and state-level counterparts, Franklin County high school students were less likely to report riding with a driver who had been drinking alcohol, engaging in sexual intercourse, drinking alcohol before sexual intercourse, and experiencing non-condom use when engaged in sexual intercourse, forced sexual intercourse, dating violence, cyber bullying, suicidal ideation, and drug use. These findings suggest that Franklin County high school students may be exposed to environmental variables that may be preventive to maladjusted behaviors.

<p>Denise-Ghloe Alevizou, The school-years of Konstantinos Volanakis in Syros and his art teacher Andreas Kriezis</p><p>Research in the state archives at Hermoupolis, Syros and specifically in the Hermoupolis school registers of the mid 19th century, allows us today to establish that Konstantinos Volanakis attended classes there from 1851/1852 through to 1854/1855. The presumption that he actually completed his education there remains however unfounded. Yet, whilst his graduation from the Hermoupolis Gymnasion (High school) remains doubtful, our search in the teachers' records of the same period establishes that the then already renowned artist Andreas Kriezis may now be safely connected to the young schoolboy, as his art teacher there. This hitherto unsuspected connection between the two important 19th century artists, strengthened or not by an oil painting of the «Parthenon» on the walls of the Gymnasion (attributed by hearsay to Volanakis, but probably a work by Kriezis), sheds new light on the early period of the great sea-scapist allowing us at the same time to assume a possible constructive role by Kriezis.</p>

Nossa comunicação é rica em imagens, sejam estáticas ou animadas. Considerá-las na prática docente é relevante a aprendizagem. Assim, os Desenhos Animados podem servir de aporte rico para uma linguagem lúdica nas aulas de Geografia. O presente estudo é uma síntese do trabalho de conclusão de curso apresentado na Especialização em Fundamentos da Educação, da Universidade Estadual da Paraíba-UEPB. Foram utilizados Clássicos da Disney e As Espiãs como recurso didático nas aulas de Geografia em uma turma de 2o ano do Ensino Médio, não apenas como forma de ilustrar, mas também de dinamizar o conteúdo estudado - Sistemas Econômicos -, levantando debates e realizando atividades, para o desenvolvimento do senso crítico diante das imagens. Além de fornecer uma ferramenta lúdica ao Ensino Médio, tal estudo aponta a relevância do professor mediador no desenvolvimento do pensamento crítico, para que o aluno se torne um protagonista de suas vivências e cidadão participativo. PALAVRAS-CHAVE Recurso didático, Ensino de Geografia, Animações.   LUDICITY IN HIGH SCHOOL: Geography lesson through animated drawigs ABSTRACT Our communication is rich in images, whether static or animated. Considering them in teaching practice is relevant to learning. Thus, Cartoons can serve as a rich contribution to a playful language in Geography classes. The present study is a synthesis of the course conclusion work presented in the Specialization in Fundamentals of Education, of the State University of Paraíba-UEPB. Disney Classics and The Spies were used as a teaching resource in Geography classes in a 2nd degree of High School, not only as a way to illustrate, but also to streamline the content studied - Economic Systems -, raising debates and carrying out activities, for the development of critical sense from images. In addition to providing a recreational tool for high school, this study points out the relevance of the mediating teacher in the development of critical thinking, so that the student becomes a protagonist of his experiences and a participative citizen.

As states like New Jersey navigate the issue of graduation requirements, most states have gone to what is called “high stakes” exit testing for the purpose of awarding high school diplomas. These tests typically emerge to be Mathematics and Language Arts/Reading based. In states like New Jersey, though, these exit tests have given way to subject based tests in things such as Biology and Algebra. Social Studies is not tested, but should be, if the state claims to care about producing well-rounded students prepared to fulfill their civic duties as voting adults. William Gorman, an educator with 30 years’ experience, lobbies for such testing in this editorial.
